Figure shows two vectors a and b . Let θ be the angle between vectors.
By law of parallelogram, resultant vector (a+b) is the diagaonal of the parallelogram
formed by the vectors a and b as sides as shown in figure.
 
Magnitude of resultant (a+b) is determined using law of cosines using the triangle
formed by vector a , vector b and the resultant (a+b)
